But if you want the best range out there in the wildly fast-seated-electric-scooter category, then by all means, grab a second battery. Good weather resistance. I've rode mine in flooded street conditions with heavy rain downpours, with a small amount of mud, but the scooter was perfectly fine. It can certainly go in the rain without any issues. Any accessories or add-ons to your Cruiser not sold by Voro Motors – including tires, batteries, motors, and wheels – are not included under warranty

When the ESCs are cold, I've noticed that the motors will occasionally jolt for a fraction of a second regardless of what mode you are in until the ESCs are warmed up. This could be terrifying for a beginner. Despite this, the Cruiser still offers plenty to get excited about when it comes to all-around robustness and reliability. Its water resistance rating of IPX6 is just about the best you’ll see on an electric scooter of any class and price point, meaning the Cruiser’s very well-placed to weather the storms of everyday use. Weight & Load The EMOVE RoadRunner makes perfect sense when you see it in person: Small-ish, unintimidating, fast, and fun. Throw a leg over the seat and go. It’s like an e-bike, but better. The solid footpegs let you steer with your feet and body in a way that pedals on an e-bike can’t duplicate. We wish we could give you one through the screen to experience for yourself. Everyone who saw it at CES 2022 instantly wanted to ride it.When ridden safely, the best e-scooters offer plenty of benefits to the riders and to the environment. And, much like the best electric bikes, they will get you out of that artificial air environment you spend most of your days in and breathe fresh, natural air. Boasting chunky, pneumatic 10-inch car-grade tires, the EMOVE Cruiser is well-equipped to deliver maximum rider comfort. Testing electric scooters is the fun part of our job because we get to ride around our cities and get a bit of fresh air and sunshine. We don't always go for a joyride, however. I'm giving this scooter 4 stars because there are a few minor things that could be improved. Here are those things: If there’s one thing you should know about the EMOVE Cruiser, it’s that the scooter is much larger than it looks in the pictures.

The QS-S4 even has a USB port, which you can use to charge your accessories. I wouldn’t recommend it, though – not only will you drawing power and range away from the maximum 62 miles, there’s also a chance that current-hungry devices can fry the QS-S4’s circuits. Battery Voltage Meter Here, I should probably note that the QS-S4 display isn’t unique to the EMOVE Cruiser. This device is one we see far and wide, on scooters as diverse as the entire VSETT range, as well as on models from the acclaimed Manti, Zero, and Horizon lines, too. Along with the slightly superior smart EY3 display, the QS-S4 is one of the go-to throttle displays for scooters in the Cruiser’s mid-tier performance niche. That very much depends on the electric scooter model you have and the ingress protection (IP) rating it has. Most commuter electric scooters have protection against water jets from all directions, which gives them an IPX5 or IPX6 rating. However, those aren't recommended to use during rain, especially heavy downpours, most likely in case you encounter flooding.If you’re needing to elevate the Cruiser’s stem to such a height, it might mean you’re too tall for the scooter. In that case, try the Apollo Ghost or Mantis Base – they can accommodate taller riders. For context, I’m 6ft 1 and the Cruiser feels a little low for me. For anyone under 6ft, it will serve you just fine. Folding Handlebars for Enhanced Portability Power up with electric scooters by G-Start and more, bringing you futuristic ways to glide. Please note, electric scooters are for private use only and not to be used on public roads or pavements. After that, you’re done. You’ll just need to get familiar with the scooter’s handlebar and frame folding mechanisms and scour the manual. I’d also suggest flipping through the range of P-settings your Cruiser’s QS-S4 display boasts. In the case of this whip-smart device, ignorance isn’t bliss – and you won’t want to miss out on any of the super handy features within. There are three speed settings, and you may actually use all of them. Most scooters are left in their top speed setting all the time, since who wants to ride around at 8 mph in slowpoke mode? But the Roadrunner actually gets up to higher speeds in settings 1 and 2. For the fastest riding though, level 3 is where the party starts.

Urban commuters typically prioritize weight and portability over power, especially if they live in a city that's mostly flat and with good roads. Consider top speed as well – although do consider the e-scooter rules in your city, state, or country. As it turns out, the fastest scooters in the Cruiser’s weight class comes courtesy of the impressive VSETT 9+ range (33 mph), with the popular Dualtron Mini (32 mph) following closely behind. Clinching the last podium positions in the Cruiser’s speed/weight division are the Apollo Explore, Zero 10, and EVOLV Tour XL-R (all 31 mph). Acceleration Very tall ground clearance.
